EXAMINATION FOR POSTMASTER, AT DILLON, OCTOBER 26. To fill the vacancy in the position of postmaster in this city, the United States Civil Service Commission has announced, at the request of the Postmaster General, an open competitive examination. To be eligible for the examination an applicant must be a citizen of the United States, must actually reside within the delivery of this postoffice, must have so resided at the time the present vacancy occurred, must be in good physical condition, and must be within the prescribed age limits. While the Civil Service Commission is charged with the duty of testing applicants for positions of post-, master at offices of this class, such' positions are not classified under the civil service law, being filled through j nomination by the President for the confirmation of the Senate,. However, the President is using the civil ?'? ?-fnr tho nnrnoso of ' service uiatuiucij *v? r ,?v selecting the nominees, and issued an executive order on March 31, 1917, which provides for such procedure, j In the examination for the local postofflce, applicants will not be required to assemble iu an examination room for scholastic tests, but the J Civil Service Commission will rate them on their education, which will have a weight of 20 per cent., and their business training and experience, which will have a weight of 80[ per cent. The basis for these ratingsj will be the applicant's own sworn1 statements in his application and corroborative evidence. Before making the ratings a personal investigation of each applicant will be made in the community by two representa-J tivea of the Ci^il Service Commission' to corroborate the statements of the I applicant and to develop information' as to his personal characteristics and his business ability and experience. All of the evidence secured will be referred by the Civil Service Commission's agents to a board of examiners of the commission's force at Washington, and that board will determine upon the evidence before it the relative order of the candidates, and their judgment will be expressed in percentage ratings. In other words, the rating of an applicant will represent * -* ?M Avnminnrfi DA the judgment ui uumcu to his ability to conduct a postofflce as shown by his educational qualifications, his former managerial experience, and his demonstrated efficiency. The result of the examination will then be referred to the Postoffice Department for its action in accordance with the President's order. The Postmaster General is re' quired by the order to submit to the President the name of the highest eligible to fill the vacancy unless it is established that the character or residence of such applicant disqualifies him for appointment.' Full information and application blanks may be obtained from the secretary of the local board of civil service examiners at the postoffice or from the United States Civil Service Commission, Washington, D. C. o GOOD BUSINESS IS PREDICTED For Rent of Year By United States Chamber of Commerce Washington, Sept. 24.?Good business for the rest of this year despite disturbing factors in the commercial, Industrial and argicultural outlook, is predicted in a report made public tonight by the committee on statistics and standards of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States. The * report which deals with conditions as observed this month describes buying as of liberal volume but on a sane and sober basis of needs as contrasted to the speculative purchasing of previous months. The committe says "that a cloud has appeared on the automobile horizon which seems to presage very definitely a lesser production in the near future and probably different and more economical methods of distribution." J Despite good cops the committee decalres the farmers' horizon is not without its cloud, describing the car shortage evil as far-reaching with the result that elevators are full of grain and unable to get cars. "Farmers with their wheat march up the hill to the next railroad town," the committee asserts, "and then ,1 march down again because there is no j place for their wheat. So they store I it the best they can and often have no! place to put it. And then if they have' meet obligations they sell their I ^heat for what they can get for it. I AJd a constant lower market pre-| >1jfls." ?+?uildlng construction, the commute reports, has practically come to a sWhdstil because of being tied hand sMl fov^by the unreliability and un-; cwtainty of labor, high prices, scarcity I dftnaterials and the almost impossibQlty of hnancing any construction.'*' *%TORM DOES MUCH DAMAGE J" ' * <~WedntMtilHv \<ght.'s Blow Cost County Thousands of Dollars. ^"The weather bureau said it was the "tjHl-end" of an ocean hurricane that y^pt over Dillon county Wednesday n&ht, but so far as reports go other ^Vtioia that S>t thDfulL force of the' W|w (fw :w#s?Ier?TOr4 faamage than v&s doneJ^L thf winds in Dillon and alfloiDinfep dbtnftieil tTaa Ciiurricane1 wept the North Carolina coast and Mrt a^ifldil4tlci^GlinUioa8t as ffr down as Georgetown.

Some firmers claim it will grade so low tb&t it will hardly pay the expense of pfeking it up. Others claim that much << can be saved. Many trees were bjown down and considerable damage was done to fences. It is said gift a dozen trees were blown across tjeroad from Dillon to Lake View. 'The heaviest individual loss was the t "'v ?V..' almost complete destruction of the Farman airplane, owned by the Sprunt-Farman Co. The plane was torn from its moorings on the field near town and the wings were torn and twisted into an unrecognizable mass of wood-work and canvass. The machine was carried over and over on the ground for a distance of feet. The hangar was blown down. Mr. Sprunt has ordered new wings for the plane and expects to have it'; in operation again in a week or two. i The smoke stack at the oil mill and smoke stacks at Jackson Bros'. Lumber Co., were blown down. Many trees in town were uprooted and considerable fencing blown down. The wind at times attained a velocity of 70 miles an hour or more. o DEMAND FOR NITRATE, OF SODA Consumption For Current Year Expected to Amount to Three Million Tons. Foreign demand for nitrate of soda, chiefly used as fertilizer, is expected to amount to 3,000,000 tons during the nitrate year which began in July, reports of G. H. Jones, president of the Association of Nitrate Producers, of Chile. Exportation by the Producers As- ( - * ? J 1 A1 ft sociation in tne caienaar year ui uu amounted to 915,000 tons, against more than 2,000,000 tens shipped abroad in 1918. But from January' to July, 1920, exportation reached 1,481,200 tons?the highest figure hitherto recorded in a like period.', The report estimates the producing < capacity of th eassociated companies at 3,480,000 tons while that of companies not in the association is placed | at 657,800 tons; a total of 4,137,800 tons. Iportance of the industry as a national asset is shown in a recent report of the ministry of the treasury', which estimates that from 1880 to 1918 the amount received by the gov-j ernment in export duties and from^ sales of land was approximately' 1700,000,000 or slightly more than 44 per cent of the nation's total revenue. Nearly 60,000 workmen are'1 employed in the nltrate regions dur- j lng times of normal production. o I; WHEN THE MOSQUITO TURNS SURGEON When a mosquito comes around "claimin* kin wid you,'' as the cornfield darkies put it. the singing apparatus she presents for the operation is a very complex instrument. Be tween two tines of a blunt fork are two saws and a lance. The lance has a point that, under a miscroscope, makes the point of a flne needle look like the end of a dull pencil in comparison. It has also an edge that moiroo tht? edee of your jackknife look like a butcher's cleaver. j Mrs. Mosquita first inserts the lance and then begins to saw on either side of it in order to enlarge the hole. This tears the little blood capillaries apart and allows her to , put her forked bill into the hole ?be has made. The bill sucks up blood out of the little well of blood she has < just made, like a fountain pen filler;, sucks up ink from a bottle. The victim of this operation doesn't mind the lancing much but there is| pain when the sawing begins. That' is when the mosquito had better , watch out unless she is willing to die while operating. ,< o 'i MARION'S SOIL PRODUCTS | EXPOSITION TO BE UENUIXE I I'll I TV DilFttAllUAaL Many Interesting and Entertaining Features ?

The plans for the Exposi- ; tion are growing more elaborate every'* day. The chairman of the entertain- I ment committee states that he is 1 negotiating with the Pied Piper Or-;i chestra, of Raleigh, N. C., to play for11 eight dances at the Exposition) grounds under the auspices of the < exposition. This orchestra is consid-'< ered one of the best dance orchestras I in the United States.

Suddenly I felt a shock, and at the same time the most fearful sound like a terrible shot. I saw a flame, and glass bursting as our windows gave way. 1 didn't know what had happened, only 1 knew something awful. I did not see what anyone else did in our office.1 I ran for the hall to get an elevator down and out of the building. I met a guard and he told me to run back,) which I did. By that time I saw some of our men at the window and I looked out on Wall street. I never saw such a sight. All I saw was dead bodies, not a living soul in sight, blood running all over the side walks, and an automobile burning up, standing at Morgan's curb. I caught hold of one of the men's arms at the - ? * * .. 1 ? >4 Ua1(a?a V?of oil window, i uuuiun i uciioc u*t those people were really dead. At this time the vice-president of our company called out au order not to let any of the girls look out of the windows as the sight was terrible. Some of the girls were crying, some almost fainting and a general air of hysteria. In a little bit we looked out by the time the air was resounding with ambulances, gongs, and police whistles, trying to hold back the crow. Police reserves were hurried there and ambulances, even from the far part of Brooklyn, were there. It was the most gruesome sight. Morgan's was a wreck, the dead bodies lay there with brown paper thrown over them, while the dying and other injured were picked up. The qaen in our office were fine, trying to calm the girls, as some of them were terribly unstrung. I Finally when things got calm our vice-president told us that all the girls should go home by way of Pine Btreet entrance so that our folks would know that we wer# alive. Two. f the other girls and I went down1 together, and we had to go out the Wall street entrance. The crowds were almost impossible to get through. Finally very slowly we got over to Broadway around the bridge where I took a car across. Today we worked but police are on guard all around. Every fifteen feet police are stationed. ?

C.?The greatest revival meeting that Morganton and Burke county have ever known came to a close when Rev. Baxter McLendon, the noted evangelist, bade farewell to an audience that numbered fully 7,000. The campaign has lasted for four weeks and at every service the big tent opposite the courthouse' has held the largest crowds ever known to attend a meeting here. Numbers of the Morganton stores have been closing for the afternoon services and it is safe to say that people were, drawn from a territory of more than 50 square miles. At the three services yesterday it is estimated that the total attendance was around 25,000. In fact all who could possibly get within hearing of the evangelist, inside and outside the tent, were there. As a result of the meeting over 1,200 applications have been made for church membership, these distributed to every denomination in the county, i The number of reconsecrations reaches into the thousands. Blockaders and bootleggers by the score have been converted, numbers of them making confession and voluntarily cutting up their own stills. The last night saw 182 conversions and hundreds reclaimed. Mr. McLendon was unstinted in his praise of; the co-operation given him by Morganton and declared that the meeting here had been one of the greatest in j his experience. The incidental expense of the cam-j paign, 12,100, was raised by collections and on the last day a free will offering amounting to $6,650 was given to Mr. McLendon. After a short rest at his home in Bennettsville, S. C., the evangelist goes to Kew Bern, where he will con-j inct a similar campaign. He stated; to a correspondent this morning that; ararngements were being made that | would probably bring him to Asheville in the earily spring.

Although several members expressed themselves, Lo me privately as being of my opinion but peeing that a large majority }f the committee was in favor of the donation they did not vote. Being that lone member, I wish to say Just! i few words in explanation or rather r. rlofsnsp nf mv DOSition. I have been a member of this com-' mittee for a number of years and have, clever thought that we should have? several thousand dollars surplus on land as we have had. There are a lumber of men in South Carolina of imited means abundantly competent to fill State offices with credit to, hemselves and to the State who are probably deterred by the cost from ?ntering the listB. As I see it, we1 lave no right to assess them more :han enough to defray the expenses if the election in which they arei participants. Of course I realize that' it is necessary to have a small surplus in case of emergencies, but I do iot think that it is necessary or right: :o draw on tliese candidates for thou-1 sands of dollars in excess of the cost1 pf conducting the primaries to be af-j [erwards invested in Liberty bonds ir contributed to the Red; 2ross or the national campaign fund. It seems to me that we could have; with much more propriety paid the expenses of the second primary in' Beau fort county when only State canlidates wer? in the race, this money laving been collected from them for this purpose. I am working for funds for the na-i tional campaign, am the chairman in Dillon county and expect to give as much as any man in my county in addition to my services, but am not going to vote to donate funds collected for another specciflc purpose. ! T. W. BERRY, Member of Committee from Dillon County. I o A DEMOCRATIC DEFEAT Savoyard, in The State. I refuse to lie about it and am frank to say that the election returns from Maine are discouraging to the Democratic party. In pugilistic parlance it is first blood for the G. O. P. In military phrase the G. O. P. was victor in ??.? ? .?? of tho fninnnicn nf LUC litoi OAliLUiOU V?A VMV 0 1920. If we can, let us gather a little, just a little bit, of consolation from the history that at Marston Mood the incipient battle was averse to Cromwell and at Marengo Napoleon was licked all during the forenoon. We lost the fight in Maine, but if we muster the courage and the energy that are worthy of our cause there is plenty of time to win the baltle ln the union, i Although the fight in Maine was of the comic. The Democrats had, no money, while both pockets of the G. O. P. were stuffed full to overflowing with yellow back paper currency. Thus thousands of Republican fanners, their wives and daughters were hauled to the polls in luxurious motor cars, while Democratic farmers, their wives and daughters had to trudge many on foot, through the mud that rainy day to deposit their ballots. That was a big advantage that was of immense profit to the victors. I And again?the stump. That was simply awful. One leading Maine orator pleaded for the G. 0. P. by informing the audience that the reason the price of sugar was so high was that President Wilson had shipped millions of tons of sugar from America to France, where be sold it for two cents a pound. Another Republican orator astounded the Maine electorate with the direful tidings that at that very moment the British government, that was in the league, was drafting men and boys in Canada to send across the ocean to lick Russia. Now those two points were made by leaders of the Republican battle. Of course, Maine, being a New England state, was supposed to have more intelligence and more knowledge than folks of the Middle West, or the trans-Mississippi, and Democrats did not condescend to answer such rot. | But that is not all. Teddy, the Little, the Diminutive, stumped Maine and told the folks that it was the Republicans who fought and won the war, and that "argument" was more or less effective. Then there was a lady Republican oratress who took the raging stump and let Main know that the wicked Democrats had taken all tariff duties oil the products of Northern labor and put heavy tariff duties on products of Southern labor. Of course, the biggest fool in Ohio, or Indiana, or Illinois, sees how ridiculous such a charge as that is, but it had effect in Maine, where it was accepted as truthful history. And to this complexion has come the Maine that proclaimed George Evans, William Pitt Fessenden, James G. Blaine and Thomas B. Reed. From 1829, when George Evans, the greatest intellect Maine ever produced, entered T^nmoo R Congress tin xsi?.?, wucn iuvmuo Reed, the greatest Republican of the last quarter of the century, retired from Congress, was a period of three score and ten years, and during a 1 the time, except the two years 1839-41, Maine, small as was her population, had a leader and a commanding figure in the national councils, and most of that time two giants to represent her in Congress. The date I cite from memory, yet I am pretty certain I am correct. And to think that in Maine?the Maine of Evans, of Fessenden, of Blaine, of Reed?such silly rot as I have quoted should be fed to the electorate by orators of the party of intelligence, of patriotism, of virtue and of respectability! George Washington or Abraham Lincoln would as scon have picked a pocket as to achieve political history by such despicable means. ? * If the people are resolved to follow Maine, so be it. It will mean that! the league of nations must get along' ? II I without the United states, u win not destroy the league, but it will make the task of the league the harder to perform. There is not the slightest doubt that the 37 nations peoples now in the league can successfully accomplish the design of the league if they are firmly resolved to do so. Then all the honor and glory, all the gratitude and applause of civilization will be bestowed on the league. And if those 37 nations shall accomplish the ends of the league, you will see our glorious union knock for admission to the league without special privileges a dozen years hence. But the Maine election was a Democratic defeat. I admit that. Washington, D. C., Sept. 27. PROTftACTED MEETING A protracted meeting will begin at the Second Baptist church tonight.

" L DUSTING MACHINERY DEMONSTRATIONS. | Clemson College, Sept. 28.?The final report of the aeries of dusting machinery demonstrations held in the lower part of the State during late August and early September shows that the undertaking was entirely successful and very beneficial. The demonstrations were arranged and conducted by the Extension Service of Clemaon College through the cooperation of the manufacturers of 'dusting machines, the railroads, which , J transported the equipment, and the i South Carolina Cotton Association, [which furnished funds toward expenses. The dally and county papers rendered valuable service in giving publicity to the demonstrations. George M. Anderson, Extension | Service Entomologist, who had 'charge of the details of the demonstraitons, reports that the attendance | was good and tbe interest unusual at ! all of the meetings, j Demonstrations were held at Char[ leston, Walterboro, Fairfax, Den j mark, Aiken, Orangeburg, Sumter, Florence, and Andrews. The manufacturers of dusting machine furnished not only the machines and the calcium-arsenate for the demonstrations, but sent representatives to operate the machines.
